Page Twelve THE MIC( AN DAILY uesao, June I, 977 "Someone guard Frieder.. By KATHY JIENNEGHAN Johnny Orr Basketball Camp opened yesterday out at Concordia Lutheran College with 149 boys in attendance. The annual camp is for boys from age 10 to 17 who pay $125 to attend one of three five-day sessions. Camp coaches inelide Bill Frieder, Jim Boyce (sans moustache), Dan Fife and grad assistant Totm Kempf. Wolver- ine sophomore Mark 1ofier was on hand to help. The boys, most of them sporting maize and blue Johnny Orr Basketball Camp T-shirts, sit across the gym lis- tening to Fife extoll the virtues of "stay- ing in training." Where does Johnny Orr, the man him- self, fit into all of this? ONE OF THE COACHES laughs and launches into an imaginary monologue: "Where is Johnny Orr?" "Oh, he was here at breakfast, son, before you got tp. And he'll probably be back tonight after yot've gone to bed." "Will he be here tomorrow?" "He doesn't work here Tuesdays, son. His favorite day here is Saturday." (The sessions run Monday through Friday). "Yep, he really enjoys being around with the guys." IT TURNS OUT THAT Orr is playing in a golf tournament in Dayton. Nobody blames him. Orr, like any number of other success- ful coaches, derives a substantial portion of his income frot the lecture circuit and frotts camps sich as the one at Concordia Meanwhile, the coaches and kids seem to be enjoyitg thetnselves. The boys are divided into five leagues according to age. "The NBA is at the topI' explains Frieder. "Then comes the Big Ten." (Need we have asked?) "Then comes thp SEC. THEN comes the ACC, and then comes the Mid-Am," Frieder grins. And that, for the uninitiated, was a frontal assault on the Atlantic Coast Con- ference, regarded in some circles as the toughest league in college basketball. But not in this circle, mind you. (Noth- ing delighted the Michigan coaches more than the All-Big Ten NCAA final in Phil- adelphia last year. "Where are all those ACC teams now?" Orr gloated). DURING THE AFTERNOON sessions, the kids go through a variety of drills. (League games are after dinner). Un- der 'one basket Mid-Am members (10- year-olds) shoot as many layups as pos- sible in 30 seconds; all results are chart- ed. David Lane, a blonde muppet from nearby Chelsea, is the winner with nine. At the other end of the court, a group of older boys shoots free throws. Boyce charts the results of an ongoing 21 tournament. Half-the boys -are outside at any one time. The afternoon sessions resemble nothing so much as a three ring circus, and everyone seems to be having fan. Three Michigan recruits are in Ann Arbor for the university's Orientation and drop by the camp.- Paul Heuer- man and the Bodnar twins, Mark and Marty. The twins, from Barberton, Ohio, picked up Heuerman in Akron yesterday morning and drove up. Mark (I'm pretty sure he's Mark - he's lefthanded, isn't he?) is wearing a Michigan Rose Bowl T-shirt. "Hey, where'd you get that?" says Frieder. "Oh, never mind. Don't tell me. I keep forgetting The Press is here." THE BODNARS AND Heuerman opt to stay out at Concordia in lieu of scenic South Quad. Frieder tells them to find out when the important orientation meetings are. "Don't do what Lozier did," warns Frieder. "He skipped a few and wound up not being registered for any of his classes." Lozier grins sheep- ishly. It's not long before a rather intriguing game of three on three develops-at one basket. The teams are The Newcomers - the twins and Paul Heuerman - vs. Lozier, Fife and Frieder. Frieder? To the casual observer, it appears that Fife is kind of deadly with his outside jump shot. He's obviously kept in shape since his playing days at Michigan (co MVP with Henry Wilmore in 1971,Fi still holds the record for the most a sists in a season although Rickey Gree came close). THE TWINS LOOK sharp they'1 smart players. They pass well, shee well, everything the coaches said. L7ies is holding his own, and Heuerman reall does look like he could make a big con tribution a year or so from now (all th talk about his "great potential" wast' just baloney). And he really is "6-7 an still growing". Then Frieder comes through with reverse layup that seems to take es eryone by surprise, maybe even Frieder "I MADE A IIELLUVA shot there didn't 1?" he says later. "I find out hos good our kids are when I play agains them like that." Frieder and Boyce compare notes an decide they're pretty happy with Pau and the twins. It was a good recruiting year. And everyone is looking forward t the week of July 3rd. That's when soma of the really good kids will be in camp including one on NEXT year's recruit ing list. He's Walker D. Russell fron Pontiac Central. He had a brother nan ed Campy who played for Michigan couple years ago .. .

OP--Gene Bartow, head basketball coach at UCLA the past two seasons, will start a basketbal program at the University of Alabama in Birmingham, it was learned yesterday. THE OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT by the school's presi- dent, Dr. S. Richardson Hill, Jr., was to be made here today at a press conference. Bartow, followeing the John Wooden legend at UCLA, post- ed two winning seasons, but he didn't win enough to satisfy the Bruin boosters who were accustomed to near perfection under Wooden. In Wooden's last 12 seasons as head basket- ball coach at UCLA, the team won 10 NCAA titles. LAST SEASON, the Bruins were 24-5, but were knocked out of the NCAA tournament before the final round. In the 1975-76 season, the Bruins put together a 28-4 mark and got to the NCAA championship round before losing to eventual winner Indiana. The Bruins won the Pacific-8 title the past two seasons. BARTOW HAS BEEN head basketball coach at five schools, posting a record of 310 victories and 153 losses in 16 seasons. In the past 12 seasons, Bartow's teams have par- ticipated in postseason tournaments eight times. Early in his college coaching career, Bartow took three of his Valparaiso teams to the NCA4 College Division Tourna- ment. In 1973, his Memphis State team went to the NCAA championship game before losing tq UCLA. In 1972 and 1974, Bartow took Memphis State to the National Invitation Tour- nament. Bartow also coached at Illinois. Gophers, SIU OMAHA, Neb.

Southern Illinois, 40-10, man- aged only four hits off of two Arizona State pitchers and all three Salukis' runs were un- earned.
